Education Programs

The wildlife and conservation educational programs at the Potter Park Zoo are some of the best in the country. Click on any of the Programs in the menu on the right to get a full description. Each program can be designed either as a zoo tour, an "outreach" where docents come to visit your class, or as a class in the zoo's Discovery and Education Center. Volunteers can also visit your school or organization's special event where we'll show some of our animals and tell your guests about them, and we have a special Girl Scout Participation Patch Program, too!
